Lots of obstacles this past week for our friend Mary. Here are the details:

Monday - Light activity, walking, etc...Tuesday - 30 minutes, HR under 150Wednesday - Since snow storm predicted...went out early and ran on rail trail for 6 miles, 57 minutes in the deep snow...felt like running in sand. Taught spin class in PM...went easy.Thursday - 30 minutes, HR under 150Friday - 35 minutes, HR under 150Saturday - Away all day...lots of standing...back sore...Sunday - Went to canal path. Snow lightly covered the ground so that you couldn't see the ice. Fell on back 1:45 seconds into run...slammed head into the pavement...called it quits. Have a little headache and neck hurts, but no pupil issues, memory loss, or nausea. Later in day went out and jogged 50mins.

Assuming everything is OK...I recommended the following training schedule for the upcoming week...along with a visit to my chiropractor or his colleague:

Note: Even though the half marathon race is just two weeks, we are not rushing the process. We just keep trying to make consistent progress...as opposed to crash training...and possibly squeezing out a better result at the half marathon while compromising long-term development.
